I don't think form and abstraction exclude each other at all. My point about form concerns the diagonals that result from the different elements and works to bring some interest to the image The abstraction relates to the modest independence of the image from a visual reference that tells you exactly what you are looking at. Clearly the recent discussion suggests that I should be more circumspect about titles. Chuck

I think it is a very common error to consider something as an abstract, when in fact it is not, when in fact it has nothing whatsoever to do with an abstract work of art.

Your piece might more readily be considered Motif, which is a style that concerns itself with patterns and repetition.

Certainly ever aspect of it is representational.

I am entirely enamored with the concept of abstract art, and have found doing it successfully is pretty difficult, or not depending on what your expectations are lol.motif work can be similarly frustrating....
